It happened in Lanús. Juan Luis Colina was 50 years old, he was Venezuelan and works as a delivery man for Pedidos Ya. The driver who hit him arrested him.
A man driving at high speed through the streets of Remedios de Escalada hit and killed a Pedidos Ya delivery man and was detained by police as he tried to flee on foot. Companions of the victim denounce that the driver did not take the breathalyzer test.
The event occurred on Sunday at the corner of Guido Spano and Rio de Janeiro, during the night, after 20. And it was recorded by a municipal security camera.
In the images you can see how a blue Peugeot 206 crosses the corner and the motorcycle hits the right side of the vehicle. But it was so much the speed at which the car was going that the delivery goes flying in the same direction that the car was going. The same happens with the motorcycle.
The right side of the car was severely damaged due to the impact.
The delivery man was driving a Gilera Smash motorcycle when he suffered the violent attack. Due to the crash, the worker’s body was left lying on the ground and he was urgently transferred to the Evita de Lanús Hospital, but he died due to the seriousness of his injuries.
The right side of the car that was going at high speed in Lanús.
The fatal victim was identified, according to the local Política del Sur media, as Juan Luis Colina, 50 years old and born in Venezuela.
“Wanting to meet with the driver of the car, he fled on foot, being intercepted a few meters away and identified,” police told local media. The driver is 45 years old and according to him, he was driving drunk, although that could not be verified by the authorities.
Therefore, the day after the event, in front of the entrance of the Judicial Department of Avellaneda – Lanús, a group of delivery men gathered to demand justice for their partner.
“They didn’t do a breathalyzer test on him, but he was drunk, he wanted to escape and now they can let him go,” claimed Nahuel, a former partner of the victim. The driver was detained at the disposal of Justice for manslaughter.
This is how the delivery motorcycle that was run over in Lanús was left.
Another fact of a driver who did not want to assist his victim
A man is intensely wanted in Ensenada, La Plata district, after running over and killing a 69-year-old woman on Sunday at noon. The driver fled without helping the victim and abandoned his car a few minutes later.
The event occurred on Rivadavia road and Haramboure street and was recorded by security cameras. As can be seen in the images, the gray Chery brand vehicle was going at high speed and rammed the woman who was crossing the street.
Far from stopping, the driver kept going and fled the scene. The woman was assisted by people who were at the scene and an ambulance took her to the Cestino Hospital.
Sources in the case reported that the woman was initially conscious and that her condition did not seem to be serious. But in the hospital her condition worsened and she finally died. The victim was identified as Maria Guzzo.
The driver, after escaping, abandoned his vehicle in the UOM neighborhood area. The police took statements from the factual witnesses, verified that the suspect never got out of the vehicle to assist the woman, and collected data to try to identify him, which they finally succeeded in.
In any case, the authorities still could not find his whereabouts, so an intense search began.
Justice, meanwhile, ordered an autopsy of the victim to determine the exact causes of death.
